Saturday Good Reads

Author Marilynne Robinson pens an essay in the Chronicle of Higher Education – on reclaiming a sense of the sacred. Simply Darlene tells the story of a puppy who teaches a neighbor something. Chris Galford says he ain’t no poet, and Tim Good has a cold haiku. Jack Baumgartner has some wonderful drawings of Jonah and the whale, and Jay Cookingham had another edition of Bad Sheep. And a lot more.

I've visited several links so. And that one by Marilynn Robinson, wow, that is long and so packed full. We are from the same hometown. Yep, and Patrick McManus too. I hope some of what was in their literary water was in mine too.

Sir, do you have an actual day job (Award Winning writer) or do you get to just read all week long and find amazing things for the rest of us? thank you! I have Coffey family relatives--I enjoyed the link to Billy's piece.
